A780, A770, A570, A580, A380, A350, A310

Intel’s Arc Alchemist A-series desktop graphics cards for gaming PCs are rumored to include as many as seven models when it launches in late Q2 2022.

Intel Arc A-Series graphics lineup rumored to include 7 Alchemist models: A780, A770, A570, A580, A380, A350, A310

There have been various rumors and leaks surrounding Intel’s Arc Alchemist A-series lineup over the past few weeks. So far, we’re expecting five variants plus the “limited-edition” model, which is the only card Intel has officially shown off, but based on the latest rumors, there seem to be two other variants that appear to be part of the lineup.

According to a tweet from a well-known and reliable leaker, Komachi_Tohsaka, Intel is planning at least 7 new models. The lineup will include the flagship Arc A770, which will feature a full Arc ACM-G10 GPU with 32 Xe-Cores and a 256-bit bus interface. Previous rumors did suggest that the Arc A770 would come with lower RAM, and it looks like it’s essentially a completely different SKU as it will come in 16 GB and 8 GB flavors. The core specs will remain the same.

Moving on, we have the midrange Arc A750 and Arc A580. These cards will likely compete with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 series, which are expected to feature 24 Xe-Cores (3072 ALU) and 16 Xe-Cores (2048 ALU), respectively. The Arc A750 is expected to come with 8 GB of memory (256-bit), but it could also come with 12 GB of memory (192-bit bus) if it plans to go head-to-head with the 3060 series. The Arc A580 is expected to come with 8 GB of memory.

As for the entry-level lineup, the Arc A350 appears to be adding another, sitting between the already reported Arc A380 and Arc A310 desktop offerings. These models may come with 8, 6 and 4 Xe cores, with the top model with 6 GB of GDDR6 (96-bit) memory and the other two models with 4 GB of GDDR6 memory (64-bit). The entry-level lineup will compete with NVIDIA’s 3050 and AMD’s Navi 24 offerings.

• Arc A770: ACM-G10 GPU, up to 16 GB RAM (faster than RTX 3060 Ti)
• Arc A750: ACM-G10 GPU, up to 12 GB RAM (faster than RTX 3060)
• Arc A580: ACM-G10 GPU, up to 8 GB RAM (equivalent to RTX 3060)
• Arc A380: ACM-G11 GPU, up to 6 GB RAM (faster than RTX 3050)
• Arc A350: ACM-G11 GPU with up to 4 GB RAM (equivalent to RTX 3050)
• Arc A310: ACM-G11 GPU, up to 4 GB RAM (faster than RX 6400)

Finally, there is one model that has yet to be confirmed, and that is the Intel Arc A780. We don’t know what this will offer over the already flagship A770 configuration, but it’s likely to be a “limited edition” model. The same card is also reportedly part of Intel’s Arc 9 series, but that’s just a rumor for now. Intel is currently optimizing its drivers for the new product line, which will be available later this month if they don’t suffer any further delays.
